One thing about it, there are upward of 30,000 choices for Christian non-Catholics to drop in on, when things don’t go their way. Catholics are split in two, between liberals who demand that the Church swing with the times, and the other half who know the Church and her tenets are timeless, based on natural law and principles of the Creator and Christ Jesus.
Catholics are unhappy with the other half of Catholics, but both halves intend to stay and fight for their vision of the Church, or else they’re gone by now. Both halves know the Church is just that— the Church. The Catholic Church, from which all other formations scattered, left, departed, hence divided and divided infinitum exponentially, on and on, always finding a home somewhere for their own opinion or their own interpretation of the faith.
By and large Catholics won’t do that, they may leave the Church but its not so much to become something else.
Catholics would like to think so, anyway. There's a dirty little secret that Catholics choose to ignore about that 30,000 number - the very same source that Catholics cite to claim "30,000 choices" also says that there are nearly 3,000 divisions within Catholicism.
Which, quite frankly, explains a lot of things.
